Wait, you not kopping the cuci for forty?

 

[stiffrhythms]

Hmm, I was there around 6:55... so I guess I was SOL on finding anything truly cool!

 

[Purplelabel]

Oh **** you dun goofed.

who me? without a doubt! i was commenting on GW pricing generally but i like that below 50 or 60 no prob.

no the middle is where the mistakes happen lol. i like to either go high or go low.

 

[JohnAAG]

Technically my size...but not crazy about 3-roll-2 and even less thrilled with consignment (not thrift) price. May watch it if sticks around for sale.

Brunello Cucinelli linen jacket.

Size and price, please?

 

[dad2bandm]

If that 40 is the price and not the size, I'm mighty tempted to go for a ride to KW after work...

No...lol. That's the size. They wanted like $230 Canadian for it. With tax, that's like $260'ish?

Had the store on google maps and was contemplating going on a road trip for that jacket

 

[wumpyfish]

Out looking for roses at lunch and found this instead.

Not sure if its a lithograph, etching or poster by Graciela Rodo Booulanger, both are signed and dated and bonus was senior day at GW to bring them down to pizza slice prices.

Glad you didn't make the drive, just to be disappointed.

 

[flipstah]

GW is really grabby. makes it super gratifying to kop but it's gotta be a real cherry.

TWSS?

Was supposed to head to Palm Springs with my wife today for a reprieve from the Minnesota cold. She came down with norovirus so we had to cancel our trip. Super bummed to be at work right now instead of getting ready to sit by a pool for a few days. Went to a store by my old house over lunch and the thrift gods hooked me up though.

First time posting in this thread because . . . well, I never found anything worthy . . . . But this, . . . some would call a grail.

Really sorry to hear about your wife, that’s terrible. I was hit with it last year, the first time I’ve been that sick in years. You likely know, but norovirus is incredibly contagious, a small incoculum is really all that is needed. Use a strong bleach solution to clean surfaces, doorknobs, sinks, etc. I wish her a speedy recovery!

Oh, and nice find. Plan that getaway in the near future!
